Minors become eligible for youth passports at 14 or 15, depending on the jurisdiction. These expire at the end of the month following the holder's seventeenth or eighteenth year.

Passports belonging to convicts on work release from prison, remand, house arrest, or parole are confiscated and replaced with a "yellow passport" which may be marked as invalid for travel purposes. Issuing authorities may suspend or revoke passports with due process of the law. Historically this penalty was applied to people who committed treason or insurrection against the state or deserted from its militia. Today it is mostly applied to fugitives from justice and people who fail to comply with court orders while out-of-state (~70% for failing to make child support payments).

It is illegal in all federal subjects to hold more than one internal passport concurrently. However, groundbreaking research conducted by Lunarius Íander, Distinguished Lecturer in System-Gaming at Issyria State University demonstrates that "no one actually checks that shit. You think the unionised pencil-pusher at the county clerk's office has time to check against 77 state databases in a country with 1.15 billion people?" Íander claims to have obtained passports and motoring licenses from fourteen states, two territories, and the Interlake District as part of his struggle to escape authoritarian suppression of his basic human right to drive drunk.
